About Face is a podcast created and produced by Kate Leismer. We will be releasing bi-weekly podcasts featuring the stories of our guests who made a dramatic life turn, whether they left their religion, marriage, or home country, or were forced to change because of an event, such as a death or disaster. This is a podcast about turning points, but more, what we do with them and who we become. It’s about our challenges, courage, and our will to evolve. These are stories about who we were and who we are now.

About The HostKate Leismer is a storyteller and writer living in Berlin. She is also the author of the blog Wayward Betty where you can find additional essays on recovery, mindfulness, motherhood, and life as an expat.
